Bright home of our Savior, Bright Beautiful home! 2 Flowers are ever springing In that home so far; Little children singing Praises to Jesus there.

Soon my eyes shall behold Him Seated upon the bright throne; Then, O then shall I see thee, Beautiful, beautiful home! [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a home eternal]
